I just got my FD out of the shop and was wanting opinions on how it turned out and also some ideas on future exterior mods.
Thanks,Erik[IMG] http://members.cardomain.com/rx7insac[/IMG]

 

i swear this car has been posted 3-4 times before, but just incase i'm wrong (i probably am) why did you have to rice it out like that?

 

Looks good! Any thoughts on a wing...I'd get a subtle one, not one of the those CF 57" long ones. Maybe a Feed?

Good job man.

 

I'm really not a big veilside fan, but it looks like it was well put together. I think it actually keeps it from looking overdone not having a wing with that kit, the veilside kit is so "yowza" it tends to make cars look a bit rediculous sometimes. Nice work.

 

I really like the wheels. Not a fan of kits, but wheels look perdy

 

Not my choice of stuff, but you got quality parts and quality work, so props to that. I actually think a small GT style wing would fit that best. However, think you should get some suspension first to drop it a bit.

 

im a big fan of the wheels!

 

thats a dream 7 good job

 

I don't like the body modifications you've done but it looks like everything was installed well.

 

well, whether i like it or not, these guys are right, it does look like a lot of time and effort has gone into that. i've been looking at the cardomain page and i'm impressed. i just don't like the body kit. keep up the good work though.

 

Thanks for your opinion. I have ben looking for the right suspension before I buy some. Do you have any suggestions on some good suspension for a FD that is a every day driver and not really for the track? And I wont have the funds for coilovers for at least 6 months so can you recommend a budget one for now. Thanks

hey dude...I love your wheels but don't dig the kit.

wha kina wheelz yo pappy got dere?



I'm really digging your dad's wheels..



These look kinda like your dads wheels without the center cap?

 

Those are Work rims. 18'' rear and 17'' front


*edit* That is the first time I have ever liked the Veilside kit. Looks good in my opinion. Nice job

 

love the Volk gtu's. I was either planning to put those or the Konig imagines on my car. I would leave the car without a spoiler or get one from a R1/R2.

 

You FD's finished off very nicely. Like others said I'm not a big fan of the route you took, but at least you took the time and money to have it done right. Congrats on a very clean and beautiful car.

Without the nose, I think the FD would look fine. It does look like it was put together well though. Both cars together look great.

 

Great cars, I see a lot of dedication went into your car.

BTW when I click the pic to enlarge it on your cardomain site, it's doesn't enlarge instead it decreases in size.

 

its clean. umm i dont really like the kit though.

 

I'd suggest just getting a set of Koni adjustables and use the stock springs. The spring perch on the Konis is height adjustable and you can choose between 3 settings.

 

man i dont know if im weird but i like the Veil kit and what kinda hood is that ? the only thing that im not a big fan of is the color.... mines going to be a metalic black or a nightmare blue but like everyones saying, thats some good sht on the body work

 

Have you thought about tanabe ? for your suspension

 

No your not weird, its a veilside kit witch means high quality and its not cheap. The hood is a Scoot hood whitch can be bought on sale at Rotary extreme for $500 I think. Unfortunatly I payed $900. The reason I went red is because I wanted a fd that stands out in a croud and a color that really shows the shape of the veilside kit. I like black & and dark colors but I feel if I'm going to spend thousands of dollars on exterior, then I want it to show not be hidden in the shadows. The shop that did my body work is Precision auto body in sacramento ca, 95817 (916)455-3888. ask for mike. His prices are extremely reasonable. For suspention i am wanting to spend well under a grand for now. thanx for the props......

I like it

 

like alot of people not a fan of veilside, but that thing looks real good. i think it looks good without a wing, as long as u keep stickers off of it i think its sweet.
